Answer :

answer:Interesting topic. I agree with you both that there are cliques on here (but how is that different from any online forum, I ask you??) and that a lot of people are isolated. (I’ve stuck around and become a very active member for that reason, among others.) I’ve found at least that jellies here are usually glad to be approached with a particular question or subject via PM, but you can’t expect to make friends with everyone, or to be able to carry on every conversation indefinitely. In real life, I approach people… in bars. ****. I have to figure out a better way to make friends, haha. Here, I usually approach people by sending a PM referring to a recent conversation we’ve had, or I’ve seen them have, on a thread, and we start from there. Welcome to Fluther, by the way :) Edit: Derp, it just occurred to me that you might be referring by “this community” to a community in real life that you just moved to, rather than Fluther, which is what I had assumed! Is that the case?
